* you can just set aside 2 TB of the beef broth if you dont want to use wine

In a pan heat butter over medium heat, saute the onion and garlic until very soft. Add in the beef broth, Worcestershire and herbs. Simmer for 20 minutes. Strain out the vegetables and herbs. Mix the red wine(or reserved broth) and cornstarch together , then add to the beef broth mixture. Heat gently and stir to slightly thicken. Salt and pepper to taste.
